If the print server is located outside your local subnet it will not appear in

the list. This may be the case if your router blocks SLP traffic. Click Find.

Enter the IP address or host name displayed on the print server’s Test page

and click OK. Example: 192.168.3.191 or AXIS181cf0

Refresh

If the print server has just been switched on, the printer has not had time

to report its presence. This process can take a few minutes. In this case,

Printer Model is stated as No printer connected. Click Refresh to rescan

your local network segment for available print servers and update the

status. If you still do not see the expected values, click Help and select

Troubleshooting.

Set IP

To set or change the IP address, select the print server and click Set IP.

Decide whether you want to configure the IP settings manually or want

the Wizard to suggest a static IP address.

Example: Select Suggest... and click OK. Confirm — or modify — the

Wizard’s suggested IP settings. Click OK.

Note: The Suggest... option is only available when the computer has one

network card.
